The leader encouraged local residents to continue supporting each other in overcoming these hardships, assuring them that the Party and the State would do everything possible to help restore normalcy to their lives as soon as possible.
He called for drastic measures, from prevention to rescue and relief efforts, to ensure the swift delivery of essential supplies to people in flooded areas and the safety of all those involved in search and rescue work.
During a working session with local authorities, he stressed that the top priority is to rescue people with the armed forces playing the core role. The leader urged a thorough review of areas at high risk of flash floods, landslides, dike breaches and flooding with a view to early relocating residents to safety, regular monitoring and warnings of high risk areas, and continuous inspections of dikes, reservoirs and bridges so as to address any emerging threats in a timely manner.
